ABOUT Tomato Onion Uttapam RECIPE

Uttapam or Uttapa is a dosa-like dish from South India made by cooking ingredients in a batter. Unlike a dosa, which is crisp and crepe-like, uttapam is a thick pancake, with variety of toppings. In this recipe I have used tomato, onion, coriander, green chilli. This is popularly called as tomato onion uttapam in most of the hotels and food stalls. You can use any veggies of your choice. This dish tastes amazing with spicy chutney or sambar. One of my favorite dish and I prepare different types of uttapam regularly at home.
